<p><a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/9423">https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/9423</a><br>
If we like the feature, then I would like to mark it "help wanted". What to we think?</p>

<p>The original implementation included <code>host</code>, but in <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/7376#issuecomment-533294471">https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/pull/7376#issuecomment-533294471</a> <span class="user-mention" data-user-id="116015">@Alex Crichton</span> suggested removing it. I think it should probably be OK to add it back in.  There is a precedent with <code>cargo tree --target all</code> using "all" as a special name, so I think adding "host" for <code>--filter-platform</code> wouldn't be too strange.</p>

<p>IIRC I mainly wanted to make sure we made a concerted effort to add this to Cargo rather than only adding it one place instead of all. For example should we also support <code>--target host</code> (probably?)</p>

<p>but I don't have anything like an intrinsic feeling against this feature, I think it's fine to add, just need to consider it relative to everything else in Cargo</p>
